My Alert: Spread widening will be killing all the traders

People suffered for 12 years during the Depression.

Life and technology (not to mention the Fed) were so different at that time that it's not even worth comparing. For one thing, you didn't have a large sector of the economy who could work from home. The length of the depression is completely immaterial right now just as it was in '87, the Dot Com bust, 2008, etc.
 
re: bankruptcy in your future
Companies are leveraged to the hilt. They became addicted to low interest rates. These companies will go bankrupt, when debt matures and interest rates may be higher or loans unavailable from banks or there may be no public appetite for bonds.

There's a bankruptcy in my future?
